PHP gettext returns input as result in Homestead
In a project of our company we use gettext to translate text. This has been working for several years, but now I am trying to run the project in Homestead, everything works fine except gettext. When use for example gettext('input_string') it returns input_string. On our server and in MAMP everything is working fine. What could be the problem? I am running the project on Apache and PHP 7.0 (same as the server and MAMP)
The domain for locales is binded like this:
bindtextdomain('projectname', APPLICATION_PATH. DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR . 'locale');
textdomain('projectname');
bind_textdomain_codeset('projectname', 'UTF-8');
The path in the bindtextdomain is correct. The file structure is:
- locale
- en_US
- LC_MESSAGES
- projectname.mo
- projectname.po
- fr_FR
- LC_MESSAGES
- projectname.mo
- projectname.po
- nl_NL
- LC_MESSAGES
- projectname.mo
- projectname.po
- pt_PT
- LC_MESSAGES
- projectname.mo
- projectname.po

It should work out of the box after installation. Have you restarted Apache? Try first sudo apache2ctl restart or sudo service apache2 restart on the terminal console. If both should not work on your system, try sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart.
Check if there does exist a file /etc/php/7.0/apache2/conf.d/20-gettext.ini (or similar path on your system) containing the line
extension=gettext.so
There must not be a semicolon prepended, otherwise it is commented out. Some installations may also configue that line within the basic php configuration file /etc/php/php/7.0/php.ini, however the debian derivate's way is to use extra files in the conf.d folder.
You can enable PHP modules (e.g. gettext) on the command line
sudo phpenmod -v 7.0 gettext
If this does not work, edit the configuration manually.
Finally restart your Apache service as described above.
Check also if Apache is running the expected PHP version 7.0 with the following line in your PHP page
echo phpversion();
You can enable / disable Apache2 modules from multiple installed PHP versions on the command line
sudo a2dismod php5
sudo a2enmod php7.0
sudo apache2ctl restart
